Volume 1 The Story of Asama Chapter 40 The Plan of the County System

Jiang Feng didn't get any meaningful answer from Zhao Wenjun in the end, although this was in line with his expectations, there was no surprise, whether Zhao Wenjun was in the same boat with Wu Quanzhong, this was the only question Jiang Feng cared about.

Whether it is the reform of the county system or the reform of the six divisions, for Zhao Wenjun, it is a neutral or even beneficial change. Especially the latter, the Zhao family, who has no heir to the monk for the time being, is naturally happy to see the number of monks in the six divisions decrease instead of the current pile of corpse vegetarians. Zhao Wenjun's move of "talking about him left and right" shows that although he and Wu Quanzhong are close to Wu Xiaolin because of Wu Xiaolin, the two do not have an absolute tacit understanding on the main issues.

Jiang Feng settled Zhao Liangdi in the inner mansion of the head of the family, and instructed Jiang Hai to arrange for her to take some qi-replenishing spiritual food, if the person being cast has a better physical fitness, it is more conducive to performing the phase separation technique, even if there is no chance to obtain clear evidence, it is also a conclusion that can be simply deduced from common sense.

The Wei family is the second stop of Jiang Feng's visit today, the head of the family, Wei Jie, greeted him out of the house early in the morning, and there were almost no traces of the years of the half-old on her smiling face, so Jiang Feng had to suspect that she had taken a small amount of "Zhuyan Dan" type of pills, with her background in covering the sea gate, plus the past of seven generations of partners, there was still a chance to get this kind of pills. If he hadn't known that Wei was an "old monster" who was more than 100 years old, Jiang Feng might have been really stunned by her enthusiastic attitude.

Therefore, the enthusiastic clichΓ©s were automatically filtered by Jiang Feng, and he replied politely and politely with some polite words that were not salty or light. The guest and the host sat down, and a few brightly dressed servants were busy coming and going, serving a good Nishan flower tea, and retreating with interest, leaving only two people to stay in the hall that was not too spacious. The layout of this hall is not large, and the whole house belongs to the pattern of many forms and few spaces, which is no longer popular in recent years.

"I've read the message of my predecessors carefully. ”

"I'm sorry for the trouble," Wei Jie bowed slightly, "The first husband has passed away for many years, and many of the Wei family's children want to return to their own family, but I still have deep feelings for the Asayama Sect," she spoke slowly and logically, as if she was deliberately paying attention to the meaning of each word.

"But if I want to convince the children of the Wei family, I have to have some suitable explanations, so I made this decision. ”

Wei Jie's words were thoughtful, reasonable, and without loopholes, but Jiang Feng didn't come here to refute her, "I know your feelings for the Qianshan Sect, and the difficulties are understandable, why don't you join the Council of Elders and assist the elders in governing the Qianshan Sect together?"

"How can this work, how can the old man be virtuous. Wei's expression was a little dark, but then there was a little more hesitation, this plan was not in her expectations.

This suggestion was very sudden, Wang Xiandao pouted her behind her back, nothing more than wanting her to share the shares of the sect in the blood ant contract, as well as to install a few people to the six divisions, and to get involved in the interests of several sect properties, the latter of which are now the Zheng family's plates. As a survivor of seven generations, she had never thought of such a "big move" as joining the Council of Elders, and in her opinion, the young head was cheating her to see how much ambition she had.

She didn't have ambition, at least not before Jiang Feng came, but Jiang Feng's next words made her mind come alive.

"Of course, this is conditional. ”

"Don't joke with the old man. Although she replied like this, she deliberately said half a sentence less, pretending to drink tea and moisten her mouth, waiting for Jiang Feng to list the conditions one by one.

"One, I can propose and support this, but you need to have the support of at least two other companies. ”

"Second, help the Qianshan Sect in the Wei family to find a helper who is suitable for teaching and learning, and the cultivation cannot be lower than the Xuan-level Sevenfold. ”

............

Jiang Feng returned to the inner mansion of the head of the house, thinking back to the negotiation with the Wei family, on the whole, it was quite smooth, living to the age of the Wei family, most of them are old and fine, not a few beautiful words can cope with the past, but a naked transaction, it is easier to reach cooperation. Wei did not give an answer, believing that she also needed time to mediate, including sending a letter to Fuhaimen for more support.

Jiang Feng believes that the Wei family can probably handle all this, after so many years of death of the seventh generation, she still stays in the Qianshan Sect, for her personally, most of her feelings are true feelings, but the sea gate behind her has never been dispersed, it must be required by the strategic layout, and now what Jiang Feng is doing is just letting them come to the front of the stage with a little more blood.

Wang Xiandao's thinking is very good, flipping the table, as the head of the owner of this table, Jiang Feng is naturally the most injured, and even needs to bleed to appease all the injured people, if he can't bear it, he will naturally take the initiative to leave. Now Jiang Feng learned as usual, completely knocked over the table, sat in a new row and ate fruits, and saw if you Wang Xiandao could pick it up.

Among the children of the Wei family who remained in the Qianshan Sect, there are many people who have awakened the law, although compared to the Wang family, the Zheng family, and the Wu family, the background is much inferior, but among the non-elder families, it is already superior. The Wei family needs to find the support of the two families, and the Wang family behind the scenes must not escape, this time they have to personally cut the meat from themselves, and the five members of the Council of Elders will become six, I don't know how to feel.

............

Draw the scoop in the same way, although there are no bystanders.

The second time he carried out the awakening ceremony in a fake way, it was really much easier than the first time, Jiang Feng also added a small amount of chanting for this, if it wasn't for Zhao Liangdi, a little girl, who fell asleep quickly after taking medicine, most of them would have been frightened by Jiang Feng's pseudo-god stick.

In order to use it occasionally to cheat money, Jiang Feng still decided to practice this ritual of awakening the Dharma Phase, and not missing any performance opportunities is a good way to exercise.

"Bagua Copper Plate", "Soul Casting Double Flying Sword", and the half-dead and almost withered "Sanhua Luminous Grass", the three types of law are gathered in Zhao Liangdi's spirit pool. With Jiang Feng's opinion, he can basically only identify to this point, he does not ensure that these three types of law are correctly identified, but from the form of law phases, there should be no judgment error in the category.

Jiang Feng used the "Phase Splitting Technique" to take away the "Bagua Copper Plate" that seemed to be an auxiliary, leaving behind the "Spirit Casting Double Flying Sword" that was more like a combat law phase, as for the "Sanhua Luminous Grass", he decided to wait for Zhao Liangdi to wake up, and then let her take a "Feather Dragon Transformation Qing Pill", which can basically help the "Spirit Casting Double Flying Sword" to gain an absolute advantage in the competition for the spirit pool, awaken the natal law phase, and naturally come to fruition.

After meditating for a while, I swallowed a few Hui Qi Pills. Back in the inner house, Jiang Hai and Wang Yi were on standby, according to Jiang Feng's arrangement, a large-scale hand-painted "Shallow Mountain Vientiane Map" was hung on the wall, Jiang Feng threw out a second-order light curtain talisman, and the originally dim room was immediately bright.

This level of brightness is much stronger than the spirit stone powder. However, when it is necessary to hide his whereabouts, it is more reliable to use spirit stone powder, this kind of light curtain charm is still too easy to leave traces of the monk's spiritual power, and it is used by people with intentions to spy on his identity.

The "Map of the Thousand Mountains of the Thousand Mountains" is a detailed map of the Shallow Mountains Sect, which not only marks the Luochuan capital and the sixty-three towns under its jurisdiction, but also has special marks for the topography. The whole shallow mountain sect is like a big-headed sole, in the northeast and southwest direction, slightly wider in the north, slightly narrower in the south, Luochuan, that is, the location of the sect, is located in the shallow mountain area in the central and southern part of the sect, so the name of the sect is called the shallow mountain sect.

From Luochuan all the way to the north, the terrain gradually becomes higher, the hills become plateaus, until the northeast of the Hanshan faction, the boundary of the Yufeng Sect, to the west all the way to the grassland, bordering Lizong, the east is connected to the seven alliances with hilly landforms, ascending to the highest forest eagle peak in the east, you can also overlook Tianlimen, but the shallow mountain sect does not border with it. In the south, it is almost surrounded by the great human kingdom of Wei, with only a small swamp in the southeast, bordering Heishuimen, a vassal of Wei.

Jiang Feng's projected "county system reform plan" is based on the current situation of the Asagama sect, which will separate the three towns of "Warm Valley" in the central and southern regions, "East Lake" in the central and eastern regions, and "Dayi" in the northwest, and upgrade the towns to counties, and allocate more land to the three counties.

The choices of these three counties were all specially considered by Jiang Feng.

"Warm Valley" is located in the middle of the Baishui River Basin, there are a large number of grasslands that can be developed, suitable for planting grains, and the local shallow mountains have small spiritual veins, which can be planted with spiritual valleys and medicinal herbs, and the natural conditions are very good, but now the degree of development is poor;

"East Lake" is named after the lake, rich in fishery resources, if it is used, the cultivation of the monk's daily needs of the spiritual energy food, will be profitable, from the eastern border is also a distance, can avoid the border of the Jincheng faction, although the relationship between the two sects belongs to the cold "old and dead do not get along", but do not rule out the possibility of the other party's destruction;

If the cultivation and fishing of the "Warm Valley" and "East Lake" can be developed, and the sales to the Okazejong and Lizong through the "Dayi" will inevitably promote the commercial prosperity of the area and increase the commercial tax revenue.

Tariffs are also on the agenda, but they are only levied according to the fixed amount of goods, and only set up a point in Dayi County, and for a sect like the Asayama Sect with weak force, collect a little less, so as not to cause a backlash from the other party.

The current financial resources of the Qianshan Sect are extremely difficult, the three small families of the main vein can't get the resources at all, and the three major vassals and the three families of Wei, Huangfu, and Ding will not be willing to fund and sponsor the development of the sect, and Jiang Feng, who is currently the head of the sect, can only pay out of his own pocket. Although the conditions of many towns are also good, and even better in some aspects, there is not enough financial resources to invest for the time being, and it is difficult to develop, and more than 20,000 ordinary people are scattered in more places, and the manpower is simply not enough, so choosing key areas for development is the only choice at present.

Jiang Feng handed Jiang Hai thirty second-order pieces and asked him to go to "Dayi" to buy land, for the future of business travelers, the land price will inevitably rise, compared to farmers, fishermen occupations are mostly "warm valley" and "East Lake", merchants have stronger purchasing power. At this point, from the owner of "Immortal Residence" An Sinian, Jiang Feng has already learned a lesson.

Thirty second-order is the limit that Jiang Feng can come out of at present, excluding the cost of these few days, Jiang Feng has a total of eighty-two second-order spirit stones on hand, the reform of the county system is not a work that can be completed by shouting empty slogans, the construction of the foundation, such as cleaning and widening the road, exterminating the fierce beasts that inhabit nearby, and leveling the grassland for a living, all need to spend spirit stones to hire monks in the sect to help, only with the obligations of the sect and personal consciousness, it is no fun, after all, most of these jobs have no spoils to take.

Forty second-order spirit stones were the minimum budget that needed to be invested in the first batch, plus the cost of thirty second-order land hoarding in advance, which already accounted for most of Jiang Feng's personal property.

The specific work includes the initial opening of the road between Luochuan and the three counties, the two roads from Dayi County to Yufengzong and Lizong, as well as the post stations of the three counties, the tax pavilion in Dayi County, the new land in Nuangu County, the dredging of East Lake to expand the water surface, and the removal of the fierce beasts that inhabit near the three counties.

Special policies must also be introduced to attract ordinary people to the three counties. This is an indispensable part of the restructuring. To this end, we are committed to three welfare policies:

First, the children of permanent residents of Luochuan and the three counties are eligible to measure whether the Fa phase is awakened three times at the age of ten, twelve, and fifteen;

Second, all lay residents under the age of 50 enjoy the privilege of being recommended as "preparatory students of the Ministry of Education", ten per year in Luochuan, five per year in "county", and one per year in "town", recommended by the current "town guard";

Third, the ordinary residents of Luochuan and the three counties are exempt from military service.

The second of the three welfare policies is actually the top priority that Jiang Feng wants to reform this time.

For a long time, the cultivation path has basically been monopolized by various families in the sect, and only by awakening the natal dharma can they be recommended to enter Luochuan for cultivation, which has caused a waste of many potential monk resources, because in the locality, most of them are unable to access the resources of the "Feather Dragon Transformation Qing Pill", which can be used to assist the acquired awakening dharma phase.

And the ordinary people, also cut off the road to the "six divisions" of politics, born in the clan family, to have the opportunity to enter the six divisions, not only the selection of talents is too narrow, but also affect the control of the Asshan sect over the locality, in the long run, there will be a situation of centrifugal detachment, if Luo Chuan can bear the expenses of the sect, it can still be used with the financial resources of the sect to forcibly use these joints, such as setting up governance institutions and appointing officials to govern, but now only the establishment of "town guards" For such a position, the financial resources of the sect cannot afford it, and it can only be temporarily promoted by the local government, and it is not possible to receive salaries.

Therefore, first opening up the channel for selecting talents, and then with the help of the reform of the county system, concentrating on the development of Luochuan and the three counties, expanding the financial routes, and then delegating these personnel to local governance, can not only solve the above problems, but also survive the fittest, with the help of better talents, and maintain a good atmosphere of governance within the clan for a long time.

Of course, all of this has to be done by the Presbyterian Church. If Zhao Liangdi can awaken successfully, the Zhao family can get this vote nine times out of ten, and the rest is to fight for the Zheng family, three votes to two votes, and the resistance this time is in the Wang family and the Wu family.

This is also the reason why Jiang Feng wants the Zheng family to send someone to assist him in handling the affairs of the sect. Show them favor and leave room for their imagination.

Get everything in order, dawn has come.

The Zheng family and the Ding family sent people here early in the morning, but ......

Jiang Feng saw the two people in front of him and felt that they seemed to have been discussed, completely misunderstanding him.
